Mayan Food Tasting

As part of our topic: Marvellous Maya, we have been finding out what food they used to eat and how they grew the food or hunted it.

We had a food tasting session where we tried lots of different foods including: avocado, butternut squash, black beans, turkey, salsa, corn tortillas, sweet potato, cacao nibs and dark chocolate.

Some of the food were more popular than others. We decided that our favourite foods we tasted were corn tortillas and turkey. Salsa and black beans weren't so popular! 

Have a look at the food we tasted below!

On Thursday, we're going to have a go at making our own corn tortillas.

"This corn tortilla is delicious!"

"The salsa isn't very nice - it tastes bitter."

"I quite like the avocado!"

"Mrs Hawkins, I'm not sure I want to try those cacao nibs."
